Urso Memorial Fund was created to honor the memory of local business and family man, my father, Tom Urso. My dad was diagnosed with cancer in 2001 and lost his battle on March 31, 2004. With the help of his wife Marie, he opened and successfully developed the trucking company Bear Cartage & Intermodal. After his passing, I became President of Bear Cartage & Intermodal and have continued to run the business. With the help of our family and friends, we created the Memorial Fund in conjunction with a golf outing to celebrate Tom’s memory and to benefit Bear Necessities Pediatric Cancer Foundation. This prominent Chicago-based charity sees to the needs of children who are battling cancer every day. My dad would be honored and proud to know his golf outing and memorial fund benefits these children and their families. Urso Memorial Golf Outing will be held Saturday, October 2nd at Tuckaway Golf Club in Crete, IL. A silent auction will be held during cocktails and dinner and we are hoping your organization can help us with a donation. We would greatly appreciate anything you can provide for this worthwhile cause. If you have any questions or require additional information please contact Nick Urso at (708) 924-9093 or via email at [email protected]. Please send any items that are to be donated at the auction to:
Thomas C. Urso Memorial Fund
